4 Overvalued Wide Receivers to AVOID | Potential Fantasy Football Draft Busts (2026) Not every big-name wide receiver is worth his current draft price. Join Ryan Wormeli, Andrew Erickson and Jake Ciely as they break down four wide receivers being overvalued in 2026 fantasy football drafts — Malik Nabers (NYG), Davante Adams (LAR), Brian Thomas Jr. (JAX), and Jameson Williams (DET) — and explain why their ADP is too high. From injury concerns and unsustainable touchdown rates to quarterback chemistry issues and target competition, we cover the red flags you need to know before you draft. Whether you're preparing for season-long drafts or building best ball rosters, knowing who to avoid is just as important as finding sleepers. The boys walk through the numbers, the film, and the draft-day alternatives at each pick range so you can pivot to better value.
